2111 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

2111 Union Street is a 2-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by 2111 Union LLC and classified as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with particular concerns around heating, hot water, and electrical systems. Most recently, in May 2024, the building faced both heat/hot water issues and a power outage, with violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) during inspections.

Earlier in 2024, there were multiple instances of no lighting conditions and heat/hot water problems, with inspections conducted but access issues preventing full evaluation in February. The building has also experienced pest-related challenges, with multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions including pests (both roaches and mice) documented in late 2023, along with violations related to wall paint conditions. While a bedbug report filed in December 2024 indicated no infestations during the previous year, the property has a history of rodent inspection failures, particularly noted in 2018. The building's violation history shows ongoing concerns requiring attention, including open violations as of May 2024 for inadequate electric service and hot water supply in apartment 1R.

Previous violations from late 2023 remain open, indicating persistent infrastructure challenges. The property has undergone multiple HPD inspections in response to complaints, resulting in various violation classifications ranging from Class A to Class C. While there was a complaint about illegal conversion filed in 2022, records show the inspector was unable to gain access for verification on two attempts. The building's maintenance history suggests recurring issues with basic amenities crucial for tenant comfort, particularly impacting apartment 1R.
